[Laszlo-dev] updated copy of Flex 4 compiler, text layout framework available for experimenting with

[Amy Muntz]

  Hi Henry,
This is in trunk, right?  Can you suggest what test apps we should run 
to make sure there aren't any unanticipated side effects? We will be 
using trunk for an end of September release.

Thanks,
Amy

  I just checked in an updated flex 4 release into the LPS tree, and it 
contains the libraries for
the Flash text layout framework. Below is an example of how to compile a 
call to the TLF libraries.


<canvas width="100%" height="80%" debug="true">
  <debug  fontsize="12"/>

<script when="immediate">
<![CDATA[

class foo {
    #passthrough (toplevel: true) {
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flashx.textLayout.compose.StandardFlowComposer;
    import flashx.textLayout.container.ContainerController;
    import flashx.textLayout.elements.ParagraphElement;
    import flashx.textLayout.elements.SpanElement;
    import flashx.textLayout.elements.TextFlow;
    }#

    /** Simplest possible "Hello, World" text example */
        public function foo(view:LzView)
    {
        var textFlow:TextFlow = new TextFlow();
        var p:ParagraphElement = new ParagraphElement();
        textFlow.addChild(p);
           
        var span:SpanElement = new SpanElement();
        span.text = "Hello, World";
        span.fontSize = 48;
        p.addChild(span);
           
        textFlow.flowComposer.addController(new 
ContainerController(view.sprite, 400, 200));
        textFlow.flowComposer.updateAllControllers();
    }
}
